Truth in all forms
Exodus 11:1 "And the LORD said to Moses..." Verse 1 through verse 8 takes place in the palace before Moses leaves Pharaoh. This is why at the end of chapter 10 Moses tells Pharaoh he won't see Moses's face again. What is mentioned here is told to Pharaoh before Moses leaves. 1 "...I will bring …
Exodus 10:1 "...I have hardened his heart and the hearts of his servants, that I may show these signs of Mine..." Another mention of why God is doing this the way He's doing it. To show His power and sovereignty. 2 "...that you may know that I am the LORD" Also for the Israelites. God …

So Moses complained to God. God was …
Exodus 5:1 "...Moses and Aaron went in and told Pharaoh..." Did as they were instructed. Without Moses excuses it would have been just him. Makes you wonder if he would have been more effective on his own before Pharaoh, would God have used him alone more effectively. 2 "...Who is the LORD, that I should …
